| Last summer at our 10 year college reunion. How things change in 10 short years! |
What, you say? You thought this post was about beachy wedding tote bags? Sorry, I digress. Seriously, my wedding and 10 years of 'unity candle' is relevant, I swear.
 |
| gosh, we look so young and well-rested. :) |
 |
| me and my maid of honor, Melissa! |
Exactly two weeks after our wedding, one of my best friends married her college sweetheart, in the same town, in the same beautiful campus chapel that we got married in.
 |
| Melissa and her groom Shawn. Yes, that's a kilt. |
Melissa. I've mentioned her before. She is the designer behind Melissa K. Hoy Jewelry Designs. Also the artist behind the logo for my little business, zero7one9 designs. Melissa, her husband, and their 3 sweet children had a ceremony two weeks ago in Cancun to renew their vows and celebrate their marriage (can you say, jealous? i can).
I couldn't be there with them, but a little piece of me was (actually 8 pieces):
Melissa filled the inside and the two front pockets with gifts and gave them to family that made the trip to share the event with them.
I used Anna's (Noodlehead) Summer Madras Tote tutorial and absolutely love how they turned out.

Love you, Melissa. For letting me make these and for loving them (as much as I do).
